Hello
I was using a Corsair RM1000X PSU and this morning when i turned it on at the wall there was a spark and a burning smell coming from the back bottom of my PC

It wont turn on now at all (ive tried different wall sockets)

So I was going to buy a new PSU but I am not sure which one I need. Below is a list of things I have:

I7-6950X
MSI 2080ti
32GB HyperX SAVAGE DDR4 3000MHz (4 x 8GB Kit)
Gigabyte X99 Ultra Gaming: ATX, LG2011-3, USB 3.1, SATA 6GBs, XFIRE/SLI
512GB SAMSUNG SM951 M.2, PCIe NVMe (up to 2150MB/R, 1550MB/W
1TB Samsung 850 EVO 2.5" SSD, SATA 6Gb/s (upto 540MB/sR | 520MB/sW)
16x BLU-RAY WRITER DRIVE, 16x DVD ±R/±RW
Corsair H100i V2 Hydro Cooler w/ PCS Liquid Series Ultra Quiet Fans
Creative Sound Blaster ZxR 5.1 PCI-E Soundcard
WIRELESS 802.11 AC1900 1,300Mbps/5GHz, 600Mbps/2.4GHz PCI-E CARD

What WATT should I be looking at to be buying a new PSU?
the only local place is currys PCworld and they have EVGA 750 GOLD or a Corsair 750 Bronze. is 750 enough?

I was hoping to buy today as I really need my PC for work (Iam using a laptop to write this)

is 1000 overkill? what wattage should I be realistically looking for?
Thank you

The EVGA GQ, if that's what they're stocking, is a slightly older one of EVGA's models, but is a decent one.

Note that unlike the RMx series, I don't believe it's semi-passive.
